Popular Post GrahamR Posted February 18, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted February 18, 2018 I recently acquired this sleeping beauty. The first photo shows it "as found" in a heated garage where it's been for the last 25 years - since it was only about one year old in fact! I'm now looking to get it back on the road and hoping this will be more of a re-commissioning job rather than a restoration as such. The bodywork and underside are in amazing rust free condition.
